Al Agnew Posted August 31, 2011 Author Posted August 31, 2011 once you give too many clues to your personal creek it's hard to turnback Ah, but maybe there's some misdirection there! My lips are still sealed, and my secret MIGHT still be safe...or not. About Sammys (or Sammies) (or whatever)...I've talked about them before, but instead of replying in this thread I'll start another in this section.

ozark trout fisher Posted September 1, 2011 Posted September 1, 2011 Enjoyed the report greatly. Cottonmouths...That might tell me what stream you are talking about. But I don't care, you can have it all to yourself as far as I'm concerned. I am not particularly fond of poisonous snakes.
Justin Spencer Posted September 1, 2011 Posted September 1, 2011 Pretty sure only 3 of those lures would catch fish, the other colors won't work so well. Al, be careful out there by yourself with cottonmouths around, might be a little dicey if you were bitten out in the middle of nowhere with nobody to assist you (better take me with you next time for safety reasons.

MOsmallies Posted September 1, 2011 Posted September 1, 2011 As always Al... Great Report!!! I'm still holding out hope that one of these days I can find a remote creek like this loaded with big smallies and all to myself... Some day

It's just it seems like a riddle sometimes and I won't spill the beans.....I figured you had to give us some mis/direction.....I know I would. Al, I have a creek I would love to show you someday that I'm sure you have hit but, also very remote and it seems as though nobody fishes it. It's has little flow at one of the few access points, so I think not many people think it holds fish but, it holds monsters and the creek really has nice water away from the only access I have found but, as you said very precarious and fragile. I sure wish I coud show it to you. For all of the riddle masters reading this the creek is on page 62 and 63 of the Delorme Missouri atlas and I'm positive I'm not catching Neoshos out of this creek as alot of the fish are pushing 20 inches and a few have been well over 20.Also as Al decribed his creek I have never seen anyone there????? which is fine with me and I have only taken one person there and drove him the way around route to get there.

Dangit smalliebigs, now you've got me going out to my truck to find my atlas at 1 in the morning. The wife thinks I'm crazy, if she only knew!
Gavin Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 I've got no idea about where Al's dream stream is....and I really dont care to know. I'd rather find a new place on my own or with friends...Expore some new water....if it works for you....do it again sometime. If not, move along. Plenty of river around here to explore.

Kev, pm me sometime and we will go there......we need a second vehicle for the shuttle....preferably a truck or something that can haul my little canoe/kayak trailer. I have been staying away from the olde creek for two years now and I hope the locals haven't destroyed it yet????
